Method
- Buy a nice soft cheese, we used St. Killian’s cheese for today’s recipe but any soft cheese will do.
- Place the cheese in a ramekin or oven proof dish and place in the oven at 180 degrees for 15 – 20 minutes depending on your oven, until it is warm and gooey.
- Melt the butter in a pot and add the raisins, sugar and vinegar.
- Add the apple slices and allow to cook for 10 – 15 minutes until soft.
- Serve warm or cold.
- Cut a loaf of bread into slices and spread a little olive oil and sea salt on top.
- Cook in the oven for 10 minutes at 180 degrees
- Now pop some chutney on top of your cheese and dunk in your crostini!
- For the Apple and Potato Rosti with Black Pudding:
- Grate the apple and potatoes, squeeze them together in your hand getting rid of the excess water.
- Spread on to a non stick pan and season with salt and papper.
- Cook for 5 minutes on each side until golden brown
- Heat the sliced black pudding in the oven for 5 minutes at 180 degrees.
- For the Mustard dressing: Put the flour, butter, milk and mustard into a pot and heat up, that’s it!
